Bridging the gap between educational technology research, development, and pedagogy.

Pedagogy

Welcome to Eddie’s Class!

I am a middle school teacher, university lecturer, doctoral candidate, and keynote speaker. As the proud recipient of the Computer Using Educators 2018 LeRoy Finkle Fellowship and the California State University, Fullerton 2016 Edwin Carr Fellowship, I strive to give my low socioeconomic students the opportunity to lead in the classroom and at the university. In my circles, I am known for facilitating children-led professional development for adults. You can find me regularly presenting at the National CUE Conference and the International Society for Technology in Education.

As a middle and high school teacher, this book is my guide for other teachers to explore instructional technology. In the last few years, my students created virtual worlds, hoax websites, and film festivals using animation software. Enjoy my labor of love and transform your students from passive consumers to active creators.

Students can create 3D in virtual reality through many different technologies. My classroom students have done so by creating their own 3D models and publishing them to Sketchfab.com. Here you can find my VR resources for presentations at local conferences and the National Computer Using Educators Conference of 2017.

The following blog postings are based on my experiences facilitating student-led learning experiences. Each experience is unique, with learning goals ranging from academic interventions, behavior interventions, and building capacity in student leadership.
